Foo Fighters Wembley Shows Get Special Cinema Screening

A film recording of the Foo Fighters Wembley concert’s from June 6th and 7th, are set to be shown at 50 Vue cinemas around the UK.

The special cinema screening will be welcomed by the many Foo Fighters fans who missed the original gigs at Wembley Stadium, the high point of the band’s career according to frontman Dave Grohl this week.

Foo Fighters were famously joined on stage by members of Led Zeppelin for the final night, June 7th. Rumours were rife all the previous week that Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones would join Grohl and his band on stage for their last night at the stadium.

In a rousing finale the ‘supergroup’ performed classics Rock And Roll and Ramblin’ On, with Grohl switching to drums and Foos drummer Taylor Hawkins on lead vocals.

Grohl had primed the audience early in the show, saying “We’re gonna do something that we have never done at a Foo Fighters show and its gonna blow your shit out the door! Tonight this is gonna be the show that we’re gonna be talking about for the next 20 years!”

As Page and Jones left the stage an emotional Dave Grohl announced:

“Welcome to the greatest fucking day of my life!”

Foo fighters and Zeppelin?! How did I miss that one? Of all the current bands, I feel FF are definitely one of the better ones, with their classic roots and their raw sound. I love their newest one, the Pretender. It’s pretty funny that right now I got online to look for Madonna Tickets for my girlfriend and I and then end up reading this article about FF and Led Zeppelin. Thank God!
